i Have now changed my ROM to a earlir version. It uses now a COM5 Build. Before that i use a Com3 Build. As the Radio ROM is use every time the same as you (but with rilphone from 1.09). The Battery consumption is returned to normal. it uses now near 3% in 10 hours, without using the device (over night).

i dont know whats the problem with the newer ROM. The first days with the COM3 Build, the battery consumption was normal. i fear that the problem is comming with some service or program i have installes later, but i dont know what for software. BatLog couldnt help me at this point.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Shaks:
i'm also having the same problem, i need to charge my phone twice a day and when its fully charged from midnight it gets to about 70% by 10am :( how do i make it last longer and how do i update the ROM or whatever it is that you guys are talking about?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Cero92:
I suggest you to buy a new battery.

I had a 1800mAh from China on eBay at 10€ and i solved the problem.

Before buying it, i just had two batteries, but i had to carry in my poket another battery :\
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] blue1311218:
I think BP E270 is a resolution.

It increase battery juice a little bit (1350mah) and keep your diamond in a sexy shape.

I'm using Don Salari rom (WM 6.5, TF3d 2.1) and have a fully 2 days without charging. Not so good but pretty pleased anyway.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Lifear:
There can be different reasons for abnormal battery consumption. actual i lost around 3-5% in 10 hours, without using the device. if i use it often its more, if i use wifi, hdspa or bluetooth or do i make a game, hear music or such thing, it consumes more. thats in my opinion a normal state for the diamond device.

the most important thing is the radion rom. the radio rom responsibly for the radio things in the device: Phone, hdspa, bluetooth, wifi, gps (not the fm radio). the problem is: not every radio is good for every device. on some devices the version 1.09 is good, on some other the latest 1.17.x

than there is the ROM for the device. you can see it as the operating system. at the moment im using am COM5 build (Windows Mobile 6.5.5, Version 7.00). I have had problem with 7.30, this is a COM3 build. On the Main Site of the ROM you can find intructions to flash this ROM to your device, because its not a official one.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Shaks:
erm... my phone is not used at all for 10 hours whilst i am sleeping and i switch my wi-fi and bluetooth off also. sometimes i even put the phone into airplane mode to see if it makes a difference but not much.

about the radio and roms, im still a bit unsure as to how that works :confused: i have a htc touch diamond which is wm 6.1 not 6.5... would it be possible to upgrade it to a 6.5 by flashing the rom? :confused:

sorry for the million questions lol im just confused as to how it all works :o
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Lifear:
then there is something wrong with your device. if take phone to airplane mode, it uses around 1% in 10h!!! When you have the original rom on your device. i think you have some software installed that consumes such a amount of battery or your batters is broken.

Sure, you can upgrade, but its not a official way and you loose your guarantee. you do this al on your risk. a good German guide you can find here: http://www.pocketpc.ch/td-rom-upgrade/42092-htc-touch-diamond-rom-upgrade-anleitung.html or of English here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=416211. Most important: You should make a complete backup of all your data. there are a lot of apps, that can do this. i recommend SPB Backup. After this: Install the latest official ROM from HTC, make a Hardreset and install directly after this the unofficial ROM of your choice. after flashing, make Hardreset again, before you continue. Remember to flash first the official ROM, than Hardreset, then unofficial ROM, then Hardreset for every ROM you test. you can find many ROM's here http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=430 or here http://www.htc-developers.de/viewforum.php?f=85

thank you very much for your help, i will definitely try to do this over the next few hours after your wonderful explanation... cheers mate!! :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Shaks:
i got stuck and confused half way through reading what to do :( wish i could get someone to do this for me :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Lifear:
For the first time, it seems to be very complicated, but it is not. Trust me.

first: Backup you whole device or only the needed data.

in the first step you need to install HardSPL. I use 1.93 from Olinex. Do a softreset after this. After the softreset i have installed the HTC Stock ROM. the easyest way is it, to put the image in the root of your internal storage. name the file DIAMIMG.nbh. Now boot in to USB Mode with holding Volume Down and Right Softkey Button pressed (the <- Key), with this pressed, to a reset with your stylus. it apears a 3 colored screen, followed by a gray screen with instructions in blue letters. follow the instructions. DO NOT destroy the internal storage, there are your backup and the image file!

With the Stock Rom installed, make a HardReset (same as Boot to USB mode, but now hold VolumeDown and the middle round button). After this put your custom ROM to the internal memory, otherwrite the Stock ROM. Boot to USB Mode and follow the instructions. When your done, make again a HardReset. The Hardresets are very important, after this last hardreset you have the device with a custom ROM.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Shaks:
thanks once again, let me start with just backing up my data to begin with... i am on the thread for hardspl 1.93 from olinex which i am currently reading through with a confused face lol :o

also when i press and hold the volume down button and softkey button (<-) it does not do anything (soft reset) instead i have had to download a softreset app in the past just to do a soft reset... (im using a touch diamond) ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Lifear:
you must press both buttons, dont release them, do a reset (press the red dot with you stylus in the stylus slot). dont release the both buttons, hold dem pressed until the colored screen appears.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] thangkls:
To flash rom via Internal card

1. Hold Volume down and Back buttons .

2. Press the reset button.

3. Keep holding Volume down and Back buttons then release reset button.

To reset to boot-loader mode ( for upgrade Hard-SPL or flash ROM via computer )

1. Hold Volume down button.

2. Press the reset button.

3. Keep holding Volume down then release reset button, you will see tri-color screen - that is called boot-loader mode.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] thangkls:
For Battery consumption issue - maybe your battery is too old - you should change to another one.

I'm using Galilio battery with 1400mAh - which has same size with original battery and I can use my phone 2 days ( with sense 2.5 ) or 3 days ( with sense 2.1 ) without charging.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Lifear:
do you have a link to the battery?

Hi,

im stuck on epf30 rom (still locked) and i read that the new korean froyo rom can be used on the epf30 rom to update it.

now here's my actual question, does anyone know or has anyone tried if it is possible to use the method of rooting the device without touching the bootloader as described here with the korean froyo:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=710842

basically all that would be needed is the ability to downgrade to one of the us roms.

any help would be appreciated!

Cheers!
[Desire General] masi0:
hi - is there a way to put additional language into Froyo roms? I am not talking about morelocale but to make that langaue will be visible and usable under all system menus

Cheers
[Desire General] oruchreis:
Same here. I'm looking for this too. Can someone, anyone answer this?
[Desire General] wewen:
I'm also looking for this, Took a look in titanium backup. The stored files in Country, Language, Time zone are

/data/property/persist.sys.country

/data/property/persist.sys.language

/data/property/persist.sys.localevar

/data/property/persist.sys.timezone

might work to push these files to a rom. or to make a update.zip. Not sure if this is all the needed files
[Desire General] jchusted:
If you can live with the WWE rom, but only want another language, because of the xt9 dictionary in messaging. Then some of the languages can be downloaded from the market. I have downloaded scandinavian keyboard and dictionary to it.

I know it works with swedish too.
[Desire General] bormeth:
Download Morelocal 2 ;) I have Danish UI atm. ;)
[Desire General] jchusted:
Which rom are you danish guys using by the way ?

I have internet connction problems with most of the froyo roms. Do ya have the same problems ?
[Desire General] A|ex:
I was wondering the sme thing as they mentioned not MoreLocale but MoreLocale 2 does work
[Desire General] BlackWhiteOne:
MoreLocale 2 does not work well for the Froyo.
[Desire General] Janniktn:
More locale2 works perfect for me. I am currently running English UI with danish keyboard. And I have been doing so on all the different roms I have tried. Luckily Pauls MCR r5 has danish by default so I don't have to use morelocale here
[Desire General] ksga:
At the moment im running LeeDroid 1.3a

Danish UI is included. Inclusive keyboard + dictionary.
[Desire General] nesquix:
MoreLocal 2 works FINE with Froyo, with or without Sense.
[Desire General] oruchreis:
There isn't suitable information in this thread. Because as said before, morelocale is not a solution everytime. Even if you select a locale form morelocale, the keyboard language isn't changed. So, as far as I learn that HTC_IME.apk must support your locale. For instance HTC_IME.apk that is in 2.04 based roms doesn't support Turkish keyboard, however HTC_IME in 2.06 supports Turkish keyboard.
[Desire General] hk5354:
How to add missed language to HTC IME?
[Desire General] oruchreis:
Good question.
[Desire General] Waza_Be:
Hello all dev's,

I get really frustrated on most of the ROM's because I get always some applications that I cannot remove manually.

It can be a lot of applications in the "official Froyo+sense" ROM like plurk, Facebook, etc.. Amazon in CyanogenMod, or other stuffs in other ROMs.

Why the hell don't you automatically allow us to remove ALL non essential apps from the settings/applications/manage applications? I have seen that you are able to do that.

Is there a technological reason? Why do you move some applications and not all?

Is that a space matter? A performance or technological reason?

I feel really frustrated on each ROM because I have to always use "adb shell rm system/app/*.apk" and plug my device on the computer.

Please answer me.

Thanks.

Profete162
[Desire General] LBTaylor1984:
Can't answer the question but good call.

personally I think all ROMS should come with Titanium backup and Rom Manager. but everything else should be user modifiable.

Profete162: you could open the zip prior to install and delete the apps you don't want then flash?
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Exactly that - open the ZIP and remove what you don't want. It's the first thing I do with a new ROM and I also add what I do wanna use so it can't get deleted. Hell of a lot easier than adb
[Desire General] Waza_Be:
Yes, but it took maybe 10 minuts for maybe 2.000 users of the ROM or more if the ROM is Cyanogen.

It's a waste of 20.000 minuts for the world.. and we have to do that on each update.flash lol

When the dev with it's experience have only 2 minuts maybe to do that.

I understand that that's not a really big problem and the dev's have a lot of things to keep in mind, baut may be a good suggestion I hope for the next ROMS
[Desire General] abc27:
The Devs have to cater for everyone. Some people need those apps and would ditch the ROM if they were removed. If you don't need them just open the zip and remove them. It's not as if it takes more than 2 minutes.
[Desire General] 7pellc:
To be fair, this post is just highlighting your laziness to open up an zip manager and press delete a few times. Dev's have to cater for everyone, not just you.
[Desire General] Waza_Be:
That's exactly why I ask to Move all the apps in the deletable section. So easier work for the dev's and no complain!!!

That's a request that would fit everyone!

I want to delete them but allow to delete them. I think it's a fair question and you havn't understood the meaning of my request. I would like to add the possibility to remove them, just that.

I don't understand why question sound stupid to you!

The dev's are adding the old app2sd, spare parts, and some apps that it take 2 minuts to add too! So why my request is different from other?
[Desire General] sbdags:
Those 'non essential' apps are essential to some of us. So why take them out??

It's so much easier to remove apps than it is to add them back in. Just remove them from the zip file as said if you don't like them before you flash.

And why the attitude? Questions that start 'Why the hell ...' and statements like 'I'm so frustrated ....' Mate - get a grip. Relax. It's a phone. You can remove the apps and if not just ignore them. :rolleyes:
[Desire General] foxmeister:
The issue is that moving it into a user partition is then consuming valuable application space, and the spare space in /system is then effectively wasted.

If it's an issue, why not delete the apps from the zip yourself and then post your stripped down ROM, saving 19990 minutes! :)

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] Gregoryrasputin:
You could always make your own roms, that way it would be catered to your needs :)
[Desire General] Waza_Be:
You are right, " you have just to make your own ROM" is the universal solution.

Sorry for my question/request, I was just looking for a solution to make the Rom more open without adding stuff.

Sorry for my post and have a good day.

You can let it go through the "forgotten posts"
[Desire General] brumle80:
I understand your request and must agree to some extent, it would be nice to have the apps a place where we can choose wheter to keep or not without having to use usb/computer or per delete every zip :)

But ofc just the non essential ones :)
[Desire General] xtcislove:
U cant odex Apps in data Partition so it saves ALOT of space to store Apps (odexed) in system.
[Desire General] foxmeister:
It's called a kitchen - MoDaCo's kitchens already do this.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] LeeDroid:
Few little facts an reasons why,

The andoid system its self depends on a lot of apps that are and should be stored in /system.

We cannot modify /system easily as HTC Locked write access to the /system partition. (we only have partial root access, this is why you guys are having issues with titanium)

apk.s in /data cannot be odexed in the same way and would use twice as much space if stored in /data.

hope this gives you a better understanding.. Dont flame the Devs :D

Can we please get this thread closed...
[Desire General] jsoneng:
Anyway u can check out my Rom? Lols. I should be always be releasing 2 version of the rom for all of my updates if time let me.. 1 full 1 bare minimum lite version rom.

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire General] Waza_Be:
I would have been so happy if that was the first answer! Thank a lot for the information.

I hope that Plurk, Teeter, etc.. are not essential by the way :p
[Desire General] DjLukeW:
I didnt know it was that easy.

So on DeVillian quick office is already installed and is 5mb.

so do i just delete the apk from the zip and re flash?
[Desire General] beidl:
If people demand it, I'll write an app to move files from data to system and backwards,

you'll basically be able to choose the app you want to move and then the phone reboots to recovery and moves the chosen apps to the destination you want it to be.

I even thought about odexing apps and removing the dex files from the apks.

So if people want it I'll probably start writing the code on sunday. ;)
[Desire General] aquaphun:
+1 for beidl
[Desire General] Waza_Be:
+2 for beidl
[Desire General] beidl:
Some more people? I don't want to spend my time into something only 2 users want.
[Desire General] rolfd:
I'm number 3 for this!
[Desire General] Schaefer:
I'm number 4
[Desire General] beidl:
What features I thought about:

1)Move apps from/to system <-> data

2)Move to SD (froyo) <-> data

3)Move to SD (A2SD+) <-> data

4)Odex apps

5)Odex apps and remove .dex files from apks

What I have to think about if I should really allow moving /system/app files as some are system dependent apps and would **** up the phone/ROM if moved somewhere else.

Maybe I'll make a new directory like /system/movedApp and only allow moving apps to there.

New ideas are welcome ;)

[XPERIA X10 General] mayamo:
hi all,

i don't use 3g nor the data network so i don't know what my phone would be like if i used them..

but i seem to be having problems with wifi..

1) after i press the 'wifi icon' on quick settings menu on home screen, it won't connect (preset, with WEP and all).

And ONLY if I go to settings-wireless control does it connect to the appropriate wifi network...

2) I use wifi to go on the internet and browse the web or check e-mails and etc.. after i unplug it, turn on wifi, battery goes down to like 95% after 2~3 mins of internet... and maybe down to like 70~65 after 30 mins?

Is this normal? It's not, right???

Actually, I feel that my wifi's gotten worse since I upgraded from R1FA014 (Rogers x10a) to R2BA020 (Generic UK x10i, no root)....

Anyone know how to fix this???

Oh btw, my bluetooth connection is perfect..

I listen to my music on mediascape using mw600 for hours and my battery would only drop like 1~5%...

let me know if anyone has solutions to this :(

thanks!!
[XPERIA X10 General] chris_knows:
I use my Wi-Fi for about about 3 hours a day, and the battery def drains faster, but not noticeably so. I mean in that time, I'm browsing and checking emails and stuff, but I don't lose more than like 20% of battery in those 3 hours...
[XPERIA X10 General] mayamo:
my phone did the weirdest thing today lol

after i watched a show it went from 93 to 68 amdthen i turned off the screen for an hour or so and when i turned it back on to listen to music it was at 71!!!

k i wasnt hallucinating from the heat or anything... so wonder why that happened??
[XPERIA X10 General] chris_knows:
That would happen on my old phone a lot...If I played music or video through the loudspeaker, the battery would drop by like 50% in a couple of minutes, but as soon as I turned off the speaker, the battery would jump back up to where it was. On the other hand my old phone was an SE W810 from like 5 years ago, so I'm not sure how relevant that is...
[XPERIA X10 General] Ungruntled:
I have to say, since I went from the ...016 to the ...023, although the battery in general is MUCH improved, I thought immediately it was much worse when wifi's on. I just have to remember to either turn off wifi, or plug it in to charge.
[XPERIA X10 General] mayamo:
yeah.. that's my problem...

right now i have it running 18hrs with 50% battery left ..

but as soon as i do anything with wifi, it just goes down like there's no bottom...

also i hate having to keep going to setting - wifi setting to get it to connect to my wifi..

i click the icon on the quick menu but it doesn't connect to the actual wifi, it will only reconnect after i turn it off and on if i go to the wifi setting ughhhhh
[XPERIA X10 General] 2twiztid:
I've noticed its worse at times running wifi.. Right now it's 430pm and wifi has been on since 9am. So 7 1/2 hours with... 46% charge remaining.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bigw@ve:
As long as I leave mine set to sleep when screen is off I have minimal drain with the 20 update on x10a. I see well over 1d usage regularly. (Almost never see 2d though)

I also leave GPS on fulltime since it seems to make 0 difference unless it's called for by a program.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slice77:
Hello wonderful XDA peeps,

Two days ago, three horizontal zones of my screen stopped responding to touches. One goes through the middle of the virtual KB, so I can't press A-L and another goes through about half way up the screen. Then there is a big one at the top, large enough that I can't press the top row of icons or drag down the notification bar. Oddly enough, if I press on the section of glass above the screen, where "T-Mobile" is printed, I can drag the bar down from there but only if I'm lucky.

I know its not my ROM, because I've reinstalled it and others and still have the same spots unresponsive. I now want to take it to T-Mobile or HTC and have them fix it or give me a replacement.

My first question is, does anyone know if I need to revert to the stock ROM before they consider fixing a hardware issue? Has anyone had luck with hardware issues that they ignore what you've flashed?

Second question, and one I'm sure I'll get flak for, how do I revert to the stock ROM without my Nandroid backup? I did one, had it on my work computer, and now I can't find the damn thing. How can I get my phone back to a semi-stock state, if thats what I need to do?

Thanks in advance!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btdag:
Run an official HTC RRU from their support or ones downloaded from here. Any of the WWE ones will work of if it's T-Mobile you could use the UK T-Mobile one instead. Shouldn't make a difference.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slice77:
I've tried 2.73.110.6, the latest, and 2.73.405.5, the original, both of which I get "Error 155 Unknown error. The Rom Update utility cannot update your Android phone. Please get the correct ROM update Utility and try again."

I'm using HTC Sync 2.0.33.

2.73.110.6 uses Rom Update Utility 9.7.56

2.73.405.5 uses Rom Update Utility 9.7.50

Neither of them get anywhere during the update process. The error comes during the "Checking..." phase. Not sure what to do now, any ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slice77:
Still not able to get any RUU to work.

The error occurs as soon as the update utility tries to reboot to bootloader, it immediately drops to the error screen with the above error.

Do I need a different bootloader? Still a bit lost...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btdag:
Follow the following:

6. Turn off your phone and load into fastboot by holding the Back button and pressing Power with the hero plugged into the computer

7. "Start" > Right Click "Computer" > "Manage" > "Device Manager"

8. Check that the "ADB Interface" reads "My Hero", not "Android bootloader drivers" or anything else.

If it does then:

Right click "Android bootloader drivers" > "Update Driver Software" > "Browse my computer..." > "Let me pick from..." > "Have Disk..." > "Browse" > "C:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files\Win7_x64" > "androidusb.inf"

Once selected click "OK".

"My HTC" should show in the list of "compatible hardware" now, so select that and click "Next" to install the driver. Switch off the phone (may have to pull the battery).

From my guide. Then run the rru and all should work.
